Vehicles today have two separate brake systems. One isthe service brake system and the other is the parkingbrake system. The service brake system is used to slow orstop a vehicle during normal operation. The parking brakesystem is usually cable operated and used to hold thevehicle stationary while parked.

Experience has shown that some vehicle applications re-quire more brake holding capacity than provided by prop-erly maintained parking brakes. The MICO 691 BrakeLock System uses the vehicle service brakes to supple-ment the parking brake. The 691 System provides pres-sure to the service brake system in the same manner aswhen the vehicle operator presses on the brake pedal.

The 691 also provides external inputs which can activatethe system without direct operator interjection.

The 691 Brake Lock System consists of:

The Control Module and User Interface(Figure 1)

The control module controls operation of the systemthrough the user interface or remote activation. Theuser interface incorporates a manually activated switch,audible alarm, and "locked" lamp.

The Power Unit (Figure 2)

The power unit uses a 12 volt DC pump to producepressure in the vehicle service brake system to lockthe brakes. The pump reverses flow to release lockingpressure.Two pressure switches are located on the power unit.The pressure switches sense the pressure that thepower unit is producing. The high pressure switchstarts and stops the pump while pressurizing the sys-tem. The low pressure switch starts and stops thepump while releasing pressure from the system.Although the power unit contains a built in fluidreservoir, a remote reservoir is available as an optionfor special applications. Refer to 691 Accessories charton page 19.

The Actuator (Figure 3)

The actuator is a mechanical device that links thehydraulics of the 691 System to the vehicle servicebrake system. The actuator separates the 691 Systemfluid from the vehicle service brake system. Variousactuators are available for use in different types ofservice brake systems.

FIGURE 1

FIGURE 3

1. When the 691 System is activated, the control modulestarts the power unit pumping fluid into the actuator(s).As the actuator(s) become pressurized they isolate thevehicle master cylinder and pressurize the servicebrakes.

When lock pressure is reached, the high-pressureswitch signals the control module to stop the pump.

While the pump is stopped, locking pressure is held inthe brake system. If locking pressure drops, the highpressure switch signals for the power unit to turn "on"and restore locking pressure.

2. When the 691 System is deactivated, the pumpreverses and releases pressure. The actuator releasespressure from the brakes and opens the ports to thevehicle master cylinder. When locked pressure returnsto zero PSI a signal from the low-pressure switchstops the pump.

INTRODUCTION

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

NOTEBrake System fluid and 691 Systemfluid always remain isolated fromone another.

MICO, Inc. 3 Form No. 81-690-032 Revised 2007-09-06

There are four steps to installing the 691 System.1. Mounting2. Plumbing3. Wiring4. Bleeding

The 691 System must only be installed by someone withgood working knowledge of automotive brake and electri-cal systems.It is important that the installer of the 691 System under-stands fluid types used in various 691 Systems. Read andunderstand this instruction manual before installing the 691Brake Lock System.

Brake System FluidFor all 691 installations the vehicle’s brake systemfluid does not change. Vehicles currently usingbrake fluid in the brake system will continue to usebrake fluid. Vehicles currently using mineral basehydraulic oil in the brake system will continue to usemineral base hydraulic oil.

691 System FluidThe two 691 Power Unit designs, DOT 5 silicone fluid(SF) and mineral base hydraulic oil (HO), assure sealcompatibility with your existing brake system.NOTE: Power unit and brake system fluids do notbecome intermixed when a 691 System is installed.The 691 Actuator(s) isolate the 691 System fluidfrom the brake system.

BEFORE PROCEEDING:

1. Identify your vehicle brake system. See pages3 & 4.

2. Be sure you have the correct 691 model numberand it contains all the parts. Refer to Table 1 (pages19 & 20).

All vehicles currently using automotive brakefluid (DOT 3, 4, 5 or 5.1) in the brake system mustuse the 691 model numbers designated (SF). Allvehicles currently using mineral base hydraulic oil inthe brake system must use the 691 model numbersdesignated (HO).

3. Check brake pedal height and feel. With the vehiclerunning, push on the brake pedal until there is nomore forward movement. Measure and record thedistance from pedal to floor. Brake pedal height and"feel" will be the same after the 691 System is in-stalled, refer to Figure 4.

FIGURE 4

Typical hydraulic braking systems in use today varydepending on manufacturer and size of vehicle. For in-stance, a vehicle equipped with a single system may havea firewall mounted booster or possibly a frame mountedremote booster. The same holds true for the dual and splitsystems. The rear wheel anti-lock system is a dual brakesystem with an anti-lock valve installed. All-wheel anti-locksystems are defined as 3-channel or 4-channel systems

(Check the number of outlet lines from the anti-lock controlvalve). To be absolutely sure which braking system yourvehicle is equipped with, check it. Look for identifying fea-tures such as dual flex lines at rear axle or front wheels,number of master cylinder lines, anti-lock valve(s), etc.Then, compare with the circuits shown in Figures 5through 11.

Determine the type of brake system on your vehicle, referto pages 3 & 4. All brake systems in use today require theMICO 691 Actuator(s) be installed after the anti-lock brakevalve and combination warning valve if so equipped.Contact MICO, Incorporated if you have questions.

Single 691 Brake Lock System

1. Disconnect the existing brake line necessary to installthe single actuator. Reduce fluid loss by plugging theports. Do not loosen or remove hydraulic lines that arenot effected by the installation of the single actuator.

2. Determine the length and shape of new or modifiedbrake lines needed to install the actuator. The installermust be qualified to modify existing brake tubing, ornew factory double flared SAE approved brake linemust be used. When adding or replacing brake lines,do not use smaller diameter than existing lines. TheMICO 691 Actuator is supplied with brass adaptersdesigned to mate with 1/4 inch inverted flare tube nuts.Contact MICO, Incorporated or a local brake fittingsupplier to obtain proper fittings to install different sizelines. All new connections or modifications betweenflexing vehicle sections, such as vehicle body andframe, must be made to absorb shock and vibration.Common methods used to absorb this shock arecoiling the brake tubing or using a short length ofpurchased brake hose. Follow procedures outlined bythe vehicle manufacturer or SAE specifications.

691 Wiring Instructions(Refer to diagrams on pages 14 & 15)

The 691 System is designed for use on vehicles with a12 volt DC, negative ground system. References to"ground" in this literature refer to vehicle chassis groundwhich is connected to the negative (-) battery terminal.References to "hot" or "positive" refer to connection to thepositive (+) terminal of the 12 volt DC battery.

Optional extension harness (MICO part number32-820-022, page 19) is available from MICO, Incorpo-rated when the control module is not mounted directly tothe power unit. The supplied wire harness has beendesigned with sufficient wire length to complete mostinstallations. If additional wire is necessary, be sure to usethe proper gauge.

When making wire connections, soldering and sealing withadhesive lined heat shrink is the recommended method.

All wires that are not used must be sealed and insulated tokeep from shorting to each other or ground.

Connecting External InputsActivating the 691 System by use of the user interfacerocker switch is not always convenient. External inputs canactivate the 691 System through the use of externalswitches, dash mounted switches or relays. This providesflexibility for manual operation by the user or allows othercircuits to activate the brakes.

External Inputs

There are three external inputs available. The 691 isactivated upon receiving a signal at any of the inputs anddoes not deactivate until all input signals have beenremoved.

Two of the external inputs are activated by a positive sig-nal (+12 VDC) and the third is activated by a negative(ground) signal.

The negative input is accessed from the gray wire in themain 691 Wire Harness.

The two positive inputs are:1. The green wire in the user interface cable.

2. The brown wire in the main 691 Wire Harness.NOTE: These inputs are connected togetherinternally, so if one is receiving a positive sig-nal, the other will also have a positive signalpresent. This is commonly used to provide anexternal signal (to the brown wire) when theswitch on the 691 User Interface is activated.

To prevent unintentional activation of the 691 System,insulate and seal any of the unused wires.

Using the Brown Wire as an External OutputWhen activating the 691 System with the user interface,the brown wire can be used to signal other circuits. It willprovide a positive signal up to 1 amp of power to lights,relays, etc. If this current limit is exceeded, the output orcontrol module may operate erratically or not at all.

*NOTE: The brown wire will not provide an outputwhen the 691 System is activated by the external inputof the gray wire. This is an inherent design to provideprotection from improper wiring.

Connecting the Vehicle HornThe yellow 691 harness wire must be connected to a hornor other suitable warning device for your application. Theyellow wire sends a ground signal to sound the horn whennecessary.

1. On most vehicles the best way to connect this wirewithout adding a relay is to find the horn wire fromthe horn switch in the steering wheel. This switchtypically grounds this wire to sound the horn, splic-ing in the yellow wire at this point is all that isnecessary.

2. If splicing into the horn switch wire is not convenient,add a relay that is switched by the ground signal fromthe yellow wire and that connects the appropriatesignal directly to the horn itself.

The yellow wire will provide a ground of up to 1amp to drive a warning device. If this current limit isexceeded or if the yellow wire is connected improper-ly, the warning device or control module may operateerratically or not at all. Be sure to check for properoperation of the horn circuit on a regular basis. Seepage 11, "HORN WARNING CIRCUIT TEST".

Connecting Power for the Control Module1. Connect the black wire directly to battery negative or

equivalent ground. This wire carries the full current ofthe 691 System and must have a good ground. Ifadditional wire is necessary for this connection it mustbe a minimum of 14 gauge wire.

2. Connect the red wire to a 30 amp fuse which isconnected directly to battery positive. This wire alsocarries full 691 System current. Do not connect thisthrough any auxiliary wiring. Do not use a slow blowfuse or circuit breaker.

Power is supplied to the 691 Control Module at all times.To prevent unintended actuation of the 691 System, besure the "lock" - "release" switch (if applicable) is in the"release" position.

Do not operate the 691 Power Unit without first filling thepower unit reservoir with proper fluid.

WIRING

NOTEAll positive connections to the battery must be madethrough a high quality, properly rated fuse. Do not use aslow blow fuse or circuit breaker.

If the gray wire is allowed to short to ground, the vehiclebrakes will apply.

Page 12: 691 LOCK SYSTEM - MICO · 2012. 1. 10. · 691 LOCK SYSTEM Operation and Installation Instructions READ GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES SHEET (FORM NO. 81-600-001) BEFORE PROCEEDING.

Form No. 81-690-032 Revised 2007-09-06 10 MICO, Inc.

All electrical connections must be completed and thepower unit reservoir filled with proper fluid before bleeding.The hydraulic brake system must be bled whenever anyline has been disconnected. Although we recommend theuse of pressure bleeding equipment when bleeding thesystem, some vehicle manufacturers do not advise certainbleeding methods. Refer to Vehicle Manufacturers bleed-ing recommendations. When pressure bleeding, use asystem pressure of 1.72-2.07 bar (25-30 PSI).

Tips on Bleeding Brake Systems1. Patience is often necessary. Brake fluids can be easily

aerated by being forced through tubes too fast oragitating them. Once brake fluid has been aerated, thebest way to get the air back out is to let it sit. Severalhours or overnight may be necessary.

2. While bleeding, make every effort to move the fluidslowly. This is especially important when applying thebrake pedal and when opening bleeder screws.

3. Avoid rapid pumping of the brake pedal as it cancause the fluid to become aerated.

4. Always wear safety glasses and be cautious whenopening bleeder screws with any pressure applied. Airpockets will shoot the fluid out at a rapid rate.

5. Connect a length of poly-style air line from the bleederscrew into a container to recapture the fluid during thebleeding process.

6. In some cases, gravity bleeding is the best form ofbleeding.

7. Start bleeding process at the actuators and worktoward the foundation brakes.

8. Even when the brake system seems to be well bled, itmay still contain small amounts of air. We recommendre-bleeding the brake system after the vehicle hasbeen parked overnight.

Bleeding Procedures

1. Disconnect the vehicle horn and other warningdevices.

2. Be sure the 691 Power Unit reservoir remains filledwith the proper fluid during entire bleeding process.Check the CAUTION label on the 691 Power Unitreservoir for proper fluid type.

3. Make sure the vehicle master cylinder reservoir is fullof fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer.

4. Gravity Bleed - After the initial installation, DO NOTapply the brake pedal. Remove the cap from themaster cylinder reservoir. One at a time, open eachbleeder screw in the vehicle brake system beginningwith bleeder screws on the actuators and movingoutward to the foundation brakes. NOTE: In somesituations, to save time, all bleeder screws may beopened simultaneously. Do not deplete reservoirfluid level. When a steady stream of fluid is present,close the bleeder and proceed to the next. If gravityflow is not obtained within 5 minutes, proceed to nextstep. (Also check for blocked or crimped lines, orloops in tubing where air may be trapped).

5. Manual Bleed - Manually bleed the brakes, depress-ing and releasing brake pedal slowly and to dispersefluid through the brake system without agitating it. Donot depress pedal when bleeder screw is closed. Donot release pedal when bleeder screw is open. Bleed691 Actuators first. After actuators are bled, continueby bleeding foundation brakes.A. Open bleeder screw, then slowly apply the pedal

to the limit of its stroke.B. Close the bleeder and slowly release the pedal.C. Repeat this process multiple times at each bleed

point without pumping the pedal in-between.

BLEEDING

Vehicle Brake System: Always use clean fluid conform-ing to vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

691 Power Unit: Check the CAUTION label on the691 Power Unit reservoir for proper fluid type. Referto Figure 13.

MICO, Inc. 11 Form No. 81-690-032 Revised 2007-09-06

6. Pressure Bleed - There are two options for pressurebleeding the brake system, either using a commercialpressurized bladder type bleeder or by activating the691 Power Unit.

Using commercial bleederFollow manufacturer's instructions.Using 691 Power UnitA. Activate the 691 System.

B. Starting at the actuators and moving outward tofoundation brakes, open bleeder screw 1/2turn. The 691 Power Unit will run with the re-lease of pressure and will stop automaticallywhen the actuator reaches the end of its stroke.Most air will come out at end of the actuatorstroke.

C. After power unit stops running, close thebleeder screw.

D. Deactivate the 691 System. After 691 PowerUnit stops running, slowly depress and releasebrake pedal 3 to 5 times or until a firm pedal isachieved. This step is to replenish the actua-tors. NOTE: The 691 Power Unit will runduring first brake application.

E. Be sure the 691 Power Unit reservoir andvehicle master cylinder reservoir remain filledwith proper fluid.

F. Repeat steps A through E at each bleed pointunti all air is purged before switching to the nextbleed point.

G. After the above steps are completed, check tosee if brake pedal height and "feel" are thesame as before the 691 System was installed.If the pedal does not "feel" as firm as before, letthe vehicle sit for several hours or overnightand repeat pressure bleeding.

7. Activate the 691 System. Open bleeder screw 1/4turn. See Figure 23. Close bleeder screw when asteady stream of fluid is present.

8. Reconnect horn or other warning devices.

The 691 Control Module provides two alarm wires: "directalarm" and "delayed alarm". The "direct alarm" wire is thewhite wire in the User Interface cable. It provides a groundsignal whenever the system is pressurizing. It activates theUser Interface audible alarm. The "delayed alarm" wire,the yellow wire in the main 691 wire harness, is alsoreferred to as the horn wire. It provides a ground signal ifthe system takes longer than nine seconds to initially pres-surize, or anytime the system is re-pressurizing.

The yellow wire must be connected to the vehicle's horn orto a form of warning device that will guarantee that theoperator is aware that the system is re-pressurizing.

The horn warning circuit must be tested on a regular basis.

After the system has been activated and is locked,momentarily unplug the 2-wire (black & white) connectorleading to pressure switch #2 (stamped "1-800"). Whileunplugged, the horn will activate.

If the horn does not activate during this test, determine thecause of the problem and correct before using the 691Brake Lock System.

Using 691 as a Lock System(Only units with 691 User Interface)

To Activate Lock System1. Bring vehicle to a complete stop.2. Set mechanical parking brake.3. Move the user interface lock/release switch to the

"lock" position.4. User Interface alarm will sound and then deactivate

after reaching locking pressure.5. The "locked" indicator lamp will come on after locking

pressure is reached.6. Apply other provided holding devices.

Be careful when opening the bleeder screw, it will be un-der high pressure. Wear safety glasses.

NOTES

The 691 System and "Motor Up"LED come on unexpectedly withoutbeing activated.

1. The control module is receiving false signals.Be sure stray signals are not being introduced into the external inputs. If the

gray wire is not connected to an external input, ensure that it is capped off

and not shorting to ground inadvertently. NOTE: While deactivated, occa-

sional operation of power unit and "Motor Down" LED is normal to

relieve pressure caused by thermal expansion of fluid in the power unit.

While the 691 System is activated,the power unit and horn activateintermittently.

1. Change in temperature has caused the system to contract and reducebrake system pressure.

The power unit runs briefly to restore brake system pressure to the original

lock-up pressure. This is considered normal operation as fluid temperature

changes.

2. The service brake system or 691 System has air in it.Bleed service brakes and 691 System.

3. Hydraulic leak in either the 691 System or service brake system.Inspect all tubing and connectors for leaks and tighten or replace as

necessary.

4. The power unit is not functioning properly.Replace the power unit. (No test to troubleshoot this condition).
